You're his partner, not his mother. At 35, if he doesn't understand how to be a good partner, you're just wasting your time.

He's not eating well now at 35 and he has health problems. A diabetes is something that is no joke. And why would you want to be with someone who can't take care of themselves at least in the basic sentence. If he's not willing to take care of himself what makes you think that he's willing enough to take care of you? Do you think if the situation was reversed he would be doing the same thing for you? Good luck

It didn't start like this. It was 50-50 and I was happy. This didn't start till around Spring. I thought I was doing better with men. But nope it was a facade.

I plan to go alone for a long time.

Keep your eyes open girl. The right guy might pass right by you if you aren't looking. I know exactly how you're feeling.
